[Python-ideas] Expose Linux-specific APIs in resource module (original) (raw)

From "man getrlimit" we have 5 linux-specific constants which are currently not exposed by resource module:

RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE RLIMIT_NICE RLIMIT_RTPRIO RLIMIT_RTTIME RLIMIT_SIGPENDING

Also, we have prlimit(), which is useful to get/set resources in a per-process fashion based on process PID. If desirable I can submit a patch for this.
